Thanks everyone. It makes me feel so much better to tell everyone about her. She was such a little sweetheart.

I think that's a lovely idea about the bench, Dawn. When my rabbit died when I was about 12, we planted a hawthorn tree where he was buried, and I used to go and sit down there when I felt sad and talk to him. It's still there, and I always think of him when I go down that end of my parents' garden.

Agreed with the bench idea.
When one of my brother's cats died he buried in his garden and made 'The Robert Bond Memorial Garden' area, which has a little patio and some nice lights, a few chairs and some pretty flowers. Unfortunately Bob's sister, Vic, likes to eat the flowers

Hee hee. That last bit tickled me!
I was going to plant flowers but they'd be under the rope swing so would get trampled! I would have done a cairn but again, it would be in the way. The bench will be perfect for Miss Puss. It's been an odd day. I keep expecting to see her outside the door and she always knew the sound of my car and came running up the street when I came home from work. I'm having to alter all my routine and I miss her. My beautiful puss.

Awww They leave a huge gaping great hole in your life when they're gone, and it takes a lot of getting used to. It's hard to explain to someone who's never had a much loved pet before, but I think a lot of us understand what you're going through. I don't even know if you do get used to it. I still have a cry when I think of the cats we've loved and lost over the years.
I miss my 2 cats to absolute bits, but I know they're still there at my parents waiting for a cuddle when I next go back. Don't know what I'll do when Olly dies. He's my cat (although he loves my brother more) and I've had him since I was 13. Similar with Rolo. I adopted her from a friend when I left Uni. Each both have their own individual characters and there will never be any other cats quite like them. *blub* *more big hugs to Dawn* xxxxx

It's horrible when a pet dies. Glad that you have so many happy memories to remember puss by.
